The Counters

   
The playing pieces include siege engines, battering rams, scaling ladders, long bowmen, halberdiers and engineers. No two characters are alike, each has his own name, costume and combat values, bringing the period faithfully to life. 
Note: Unlike the original game, theses counters have adopted the CROISADES format (Horse speed, defense armor and direction arrow for horses).
